How about a shotgun and a shovel? =)
I always thought chains in the basement would work better than just locked in their rooms. Unfortunately, there are laws against that....
Or perhaps, fortunately........
NSAIDs include aspirin, ibuprofen, naproxen, diclofenac, ketoprofen, and tiaprofenic acid.
It happens.

Surely you jest. What GOOD point comes from "planned parenthood", and the likes of Margaret Sanger????????
An alarming number of parents do just that every day. They are so busy with their own lives and conspicuous consumption ... and so intent upon being their children's "best friends" ... that they have completely abrogated their parental responsibilities. Many have seldom, if ever, said NO to their children ... even when it comes to life altering behaviour, such as sex, before the child is mature enough to know what it is doing.
Our society and culture are permeated through and through with blatant sex ... in dialogue and action on every tv program ... in the lurid books people read ... and it is taught in school from early grades. [Wake up, folks, "Heather Has Two Mommies", taught in kindergarten, is all about SEX!]
Sex has become nearly inescapable .... These parents probably convinced themselves that they were acting responsibly ... but all they accomplished was to kill their own child. The drug companies do not force people to use their products.
Actually, it's me, too. Stupid parents. Would it have been worse if their daughter would have contracted an incurable sexually transmitted disease and that might have killed her? What were they thinking??? Oh well...at least she wouldn't have gotten pregnant.
I don't feel a need to defend them. I have always felt that they were a place the girls could go for information when their parents were too uptight to talk to them.
LeCross Birth Control
I see the commercial a lot when I am on the treadmill in the afternoon, which is telling of who the drug company is targeting during this time. They talk about the risk and how they are increased for certain women, by certain activities. They talk about how they don't prevent std's and how they are meant for women in committed relationships. The doctor that suggested/prescribed this as the method of choice doesn't appear to have followed the criteria from the commercial.
Why do I get the feeling that all the modern sexual "rules" are being written by adolescent boys? Is it the boys putting all the pressure on these young girls to be little whores?
Dads and the media need to start teaching their boys to be gentlemen AND their girls (and boys) to be chaste.
Cheers, sweetie!
None that I am aware of but that isn't the point.
How can blood clots in her lower pelvis 'suddenly' kill her.
The news reports are usually scrambled, but most likely she died of a pulmonary embolism...blood clot, risk of which increases from birth control pills, went to lungs.
Of course, one can die of this from sitting too long in an airplane. Risk of death from pregnancy is not insignificant. Risk of developing breast cancer from later childbirth/nursin is greater. Birth control pills are sometimes prescribed, not for contraception, but for heavy periods, etc. That's life, a series of risk/benefit alternatives. Unfortunately, trial lawyers and ignorant people have figured out how to demonize choice/risk and make a buck from it...
Wow. I was thinking more of a .410 with rock salt, but I like your dedication. =)
This really stinks. Parents know shes having sex @ 14 and the only idea they have is birth control?
